The White House has released a report by the president’s Council of Economic Advisers that concludes, “Immigration has a positive effect on the American economy as a whole and on the income of native-born American workers.”

People on our side of the debate appreciate the White House’s efforts, but the report is unlikely to convince these folks. In fact, it’ll probably make them more angry.
